What makes a house an Architectural Digest-worthy home? This means something different for everyone when it comes to the dream home design world, be it mid-century modern open plan, a state-of-the-art beachside apartment, sleek, urban loft with dramatic city scape views, a charming, Victorian farmhouse or craftsman bungalow. That's the beauty of inspiring design.
In this particular case, I've been eyeing this elegant, wonderful two-story home on Sunnyslope Avenue in West Petaluma for many years of my morning dog walking routine, wondering what it looked like inside and how its unique style came about. It strikes me as an especially gracious home with an air of southern European elegance in its gorgeous, Northern California, heavily canopied, creekside setting.
I was thrilled to finally get to look inside its fabulous front door when my husband, Timo started working with the home's long-time family members, who were readying their beloved late parents' property for sale for the first time in many decades.
There's something extra special about this one-of-a-kind house, the front section which was added on to in the 60s from its original ranch style layout to accommodate a large and lively family. I love all of the harmonious period features and I hope that whoever the lucky buyers are will retain much of its original charm and character.
